I thought you were going to say something like ¨5 days till the fight¨.

Will a victory over Miguel Cotto be enough to make Manny Pacquiao the fighter of the decade?

I vote yes.

If he doesn´t, Cotto might be one of the contenders, but I would vote Calzaghe.

Question..who has held the Top P4P spot longer in the 2000's?

The winner of Mayweather-Pacquiao would be the fighter of the Decade..

Mayweather did a lot in the early part of the decade..as where Manny was establishing his name..now that Manny's on top..Mayweather's doing some suspect ****..

so definitely would determine the FOTD if Pacquiao were to win..

Cotto became Pro in 2001 and has accomplished a lot..but not to the level of Mayweather or Pacquiao.

Yeah, but at the same time, Manny established himself in the lower weight classes. He only got big now in the eyes of casual boxing fans with his wins over Oscar and Hatton. To many, they were already calling him better than Floyd or P4P #1 when he was at 130lbs. Heck even after whooping Barrera people put him in P4P rankings. And that's all after whooping a lot of ass in asia. I mean, Pac's got just as good of an early part as he does now. He may not have been technically as sound, but he was fighting the best he could back then. The top 3 Mexicans of the last 10 years within a 1 1/2 year time frame.

No doubt if Manny Defeats Cotto he would be the CLEAR fighter of the decade.

Great resume, Great Wars, Several Rematches, Entertaining Style, Multi-Divison Champ. Mega fights and always active.

Pac has done it all.
Even when he loses to Mayweather I'll consider Pac the best of the decade.

Mayweather is the best fighter of the generation though.

I thought people would respect Calz a lot more after his ¨victories¨ over RJJ and Hopkins.

Personally, I scored the Hopkins fight for Hopkins. Still the judged gave it to Calz. It was a close fight.

I give him a lot of credit because even though he was never as talented as RJJ, he knew how to never give up and overwhelm his opponents with sheer output round after round.

lol "victories" yea a gift decision and beating a shot guy earns you respect? his only legit victories over top fighters were kessler and lacy so i hardly think that qualifies as fighter of the decade. fighter of the second maybe?

[Jamel H]

I say yes. This would be a huge win for Manny. Mayweather and "fighter of the decade" doesn't even belong in the same sentence.

I guess you forgot what Mayweather did earlier in this past decade....
